Those are great feats in terms of upping damage.as an archer ranger you have good reflex defence anyway so a large proportion of area effect attacks miss.you want to spread the damage out a bit and in my experience playing an archer ranger to level 30 you don't get hit all that often by being close if you're sensible about how you position yourself and what you do.you really might want to look at the AC or an archer ranger.You'll commonly start with 20 dex, hide armour etc. You're probably behind plate wearer with a shield but you're not in bad shape for AC.combine that with some of the magic items you can get you can be way up there.Amulet of Elusive Prey, Predator's Hide for example. Like I've said before, my level 30 archer ranger was hit by Orcus on an attack of opportunity. A 20 from Orcus failed to crit...</blockquote>
